Bacon got REALLY expensive the year before I left the chef life for the wide world of food sales. I ended up running this as a special on the bars but it’s become a staple for me whenever I get the craving.
Sourdough, dukes mayo, good tomato, lettuce, battered and fried chicken skins. You get that crunch and savory you want from a BLT at a WAY better price.
I think it could use a little extra protein. A lentil or bean patty made with chicken stock might work if it needs to be low cost. Or a fried egg if you’re rich?
I would 100% agree with you if it wasn’t a lunch/light bite thing. Fried egg is the way to go, I’d get side-eyed straight to hell if I tried anything “Veggie” patty wise.
Makes sense, I forget not everyone has to strategise their food around nutrition like me.
It does look delicious though. I may have to try an adaptation. Thanks for the idea!
